DR.. GEENE: For three years we have been
pushing our own "Nerve Tonic" and, we thought,
with success, but when the under dog in the fight
we are never ashamed to acknowledge the defeat

of your Neryura Nerve Tonic has left us in the
shade with our preparation, and the numerous
daily calls for "Dr. Greenes Nervura Nerve
Tonic" have convinced us that you haze indeed
hit on remedy of trne merit and are placing 1t in
very 1udlcious manner before the public.
Please find enclosed our check, for which you
VIII kindly strip us at once another gross OF "Ner-
vura." Our Stock Is getting low and we trust
you will not delay the shipment. Trusting your
preparation will continue to meet with the sue
cess its merits demand, We beg TO, remain.

The English Skylark.

The lark u.s. probably, if the whole
truth We're toll, at first rather q disap.
pointment to most Americans, who not
unnaturally expect from ''the bird that
sings at Heavens gate'' u song of great
variety and volume. It was in Sussex
many years ago, upon the cliffs overlook
ing St. Leonard 's-on-the- Sea, that we first
made his acquaintance. 1t was early
morning, clear and calm after q night Of
storm, which had brought two wrecks on
shore within sight, and the shock and roar
of the waves were still so tremendous that
we were fairly driven from our ac-
customed walk along the Marina, and
turning inland by road which tunneled
its way upward, gained the level of the
rich farming land above the town. AS
we emerged into the sunshine bird rose
singing from an adjacent field. "Can that
feeble, monotonous chirper be skylark:''
thought we as he rose higher, still con-
tinuing to sing. His actions answered
the doubt; for as it he had been on exhi-
bition, he still rose with successive flut-
tering impulses in widening spiral, till
he was quite lost to sight in the cloudless
sky, while his voice proved itself of more
penetrating quality than had at first ap.
peared, for it continued to reach us,
family, it is true, but with perfect dis
tinctness. H. Mead in Ameri-
can Magazine.

The Old Man Cured sE,n.

IL appears that in this bank the c,ar.s
were frequently compelled to ask the nav.

between pay days, and he, being of -
klnoly disposition, cashed their due bills.
carrying the paper in the drawer as 81
much cash. At the end of the month the
advances were deducted from the salaries
OF those favored. These pieces of naner
were professionally known as "snakes. !,
~ SO happened on one occasion that the
nank examiner paid his official visit when
!here were IN the drawer ''snakes'' amount-

was compelled to confess that he often
advanced money to the clerks in this man

aminer, 'for it encourages extravarnnco
and is liable to get you into trouble wifi
the BOARD Soon after his departure the
cashler--n venerable gentleman since de-
ccasett--approached the paying teller and
asked what was meant by the term
snakes" which lie had overheard used in
the conversation with the examiner
Ihere was nothing left him but to explain
the whole matter, which he did by telling
now the young gentlemen in the hank
had gotten behindhand in their finances
and were forced to negotiate short loans
each month
'And this is really the condition of our
young men?'' remarked the cashier.
y am sorry to say yes.''
How much of this paper is there in the
drawer?'' - '''0
"About $780,"

and he walked into his private Office In
a few minutes he came out with a check
IN his hand twas his personal check for
the full amount Of the Snakes - Said
he:
Put this in the drawer. I will give

into small pieces the numerous due bills.
''They are now free; and let them keep so.
Don't advance any more money. Here

1t took about five minutes for this little
affair to he known in the bank, and every
man in the place at once proceeded to
grumble to himself because he did not
have "snake" in the drawer at that par

The Chinese Quarter In New York.

In 1875 there were but about $50 China
men in New York. The Chinatown of
the present was a very insignificant col
ony, and queue seen on the streets
created n sensation, at least among tho
ranks of the small boys dow ntown. Now
there are fully 1900 Celestials in this city.
They are doing we'll in various lines Of
business, and there are large number of
them who have bank accounts running
into thousands and tens of thousands Of
dollars. In fact there are at least two
Chinese merchants in Mott street who each
own considerably over $100, 600 in property
and money. 1t was not until 1915 that
the Chinese took possession Of Mott street.
At that time the six companies of San
Francisco, which practically controlled the
Chinese population of that city, established
an agency in this once fashionable street.
As new arrivals from tho fiowery king
dom appeared on the scene they settled
down in this spot and Chinatown waxed
and grew strong, until it became what it
now is, veritable city within a city, hav-
ing its own municipal government and in
most matters making laws suiting itself,
and growing in strength oblivious of the
political and social amenities of the great
city around it. The Chinese evidently be-
lieve in close corporutions.-Ne York
